    The US is not a democracy, it's a democratic republic...and no,geography isn't irrelevant, that's precisely why the founders decided to use the EC.


    And you're b*tching about it 5yrs. later...who cares?

    Anyone who knows anything about a presidential election knew going in that whoever won the EC was the president-elect, so it's a little late to whine about it now.

    Any claims that Clinton won the popular vote must be balanced against where those votes came from. Votes from large populous blue states (California, Illinois, New York, Mass. etc.) where illegals flourish and are encouraged (or allowed) to access ALL services and privileges open to U.S. citizens would have to be gleaned over carefully to screen out illegal voters.

    It doesn't matter as Trump remains president no matter what but claims about who won the popular vote will always remain specious and suspect due to how
    democrat dominated states enable and encourage illegal immigrants to break and abuse our laws. That much is fact.

    I've got breaking news for all of the whiners who think you have to 'balance the votes from where they came': Donald Trump won - FAIR and SQUARE. There isn't a whole lot much more to say except that you can either whine & whinge or get down to work and help to drain the swamp and make american great. The bottom line is, all the successes achieved will be accredited to those who do ..... and you'll be left behind with your undies in a bunch for 8 years.

    let see what the popular vote is when we have voter accountability. i could have voted 6 times in my state last year. it was an absolute joke. The DNC was bringing in busses of people from the inner cities to vote in rural counties and going to multiple voting stations. It was a joke. People not even able to speak english being coached on how to fill out forms...no ID required.

    I'm not whining. I was responding to a question. Only reason I ever bring up the popular vote is to refute the nonsense of a mandate or rejection of obama policies.

    Do you have a link to the Trump supporter being thrown off a plane? I have tried to google it, but all I get is this woman thrown off for berating a Trump supporter, and the couple thrown off for verbally assaulting the Trumps kids. So, please provide a link.

    According to the polls. But can they really be trusted? They told us that Trump had no chance at winning, but he won. The facts is that polls are nothing more the measurements to judge how the DNC messages are being received. The DNC pushes an agenda item often a false narrative. They do this through manipulation of the media. Then they then conduct a poll to see how many people will parroting that message. In the end, the polls are not able to tell you what individuals actually believe, or to accurately predict the outcome of an election.

    There is also a video on that website is both funny and very disturbing.

    Trump being sworn in while a deranged american liberal screams like a maniac to the song of Titanic playing in the background.

    American liberals seem a very emotional people.

    Despite the partisan paranoia, polls are the best way we've found to determine the public sentiment. I know of no legitimate poll that declared that "Trump had no chance of winning." In fact they generally concurred in finding Clinton's lead diminishing in the closing days of the campaign, until she only received 2.9 million more votes, a 2.1% margin. The final aggregate of several surveys showed her with a 3.2% edge, so they were 1.1% off, and who's to say that discrepancy wasn't due to her lead continuing to fall after the polling had been concluded?

    Hyper-partisans inevitably kvetch about polls if they don't like the results, but ignoring public surveys leaves them polling only themselves and their ideological soulmates, a far less reliable metric.

    So, football fans should riot, beat, break windows if their team wins in the stats (1st downs, yardage gained, etc.) but lose on the scoreboard as the rules provide?

    Well, I guess so if they are leftists. See, the rules everybody plays by and are written into the founding documents are OK only if the Democrat wins. Otherwise, riot, burn, loot, break windows. See, rules are for the other guy.

    Where I come from, we call them "hysterical". It's certainly amusing, but damn, it's getting old!

    Football is a game, so of course not. There would have been riots if Clinton was elected because she would continue neoliberal trade policies and economics which people have rejected.

    Also, when you threaten women with banning abortion, threaten migrants with forced deportation/breaking up families, threaten voters with Jeff Sessions' appointment, threaten public schools, etc. people get really, really pissed. You'll have to accept that if you want to pursue policies that hurt the mass of people.

    Go watch some of the videos of the network broadcasts on election night projecting a sure Hillary win and by a potential landslide. They were saying it would probably be an early night. Mark Halperin who did a documentary on the election was filmed walking into Hillary Headquarters and his team was discussing how bad Trump's reaction would be to his huge loss.

    They ALLL were convinced Hillary was a sure thing on election night. At least for the first hour or two of the broadcasts.

    Ooopsie.

    Deranged may refer to psychosis, a generic psychiatric term for a mental state often described as involving a "loss of contact with reality.

    Those liberals are way beyond hysterical.

    Who has threatened banning abortion? Trump didn't

    Illegal aliens have absolutely no rights to protest a threat of deportation. They are criminals who don't belong here. That they are worried the law might be enforced is like a bank robber being worried he would be caught and jailed by the cops. Don't want to worry? GO HOME!!!

    Threaten voters with Sessions? How? By enforcing laws against fraudulent voting like Project Veritas confirmed in videos with Democrat operatives showing how they accomplish illegal voting? Or by enforcing laws against voter fraud by organizations like the disgraced ACORN which was proven and convicted of voter fraud? By enforcing laws in districts like those in Detroit which Jill Stein's re-count proved that more ballots were counted than there were registered voters in the district?

    Threaten public schools by giving parents the ability to escape the systems that are operated by and for the benefit of the teacher's unions and Democrat politicians?

    Like I said, Democrats riot, burn, break windows, when they lose, whether by the rules or not.

    Notice in the video that the deranged woman was protesting the guy who voted for PRESIDENT TRUMP (say it with me. PRESIDENT TRUMP) Stop obsessing over the fact that the radical left lost. Enjoy the ride with PRESIDENT TRUMP. He won according to the rules and 3 million extra votes in crazy California won't dictate how Americans in the rest of the country live their lives.

    PRESIDENT TRUMP.

    Trump said women need to face punishment for abortion, and I am sure he will choose a religious lunatic for SCOTUS nominee.

    There was a family that lived next door to my grandmother, the husband is legal but his wife is not. They've been here for years, and are decent hard working people, pay their taxes, and have a small child. You really want to break that up? Not all illegal migration is equal.

    Jeff Sessions believes "good people don't smoke marijuana". He will prosecute the mindlessly stupid war on drugs, so he threatens voters in many states. Voter fraud is basically nil, it doesn't happen NEARLY enough to make a career out of prosecuting voting rights activists. More people voting is better, we should have MANDATORY voting in this country, but that aside.....Sessions is a dinosaur from the confederate era. Unacceptable. Jill Stein's recount showed LESS voters voting than were registered, 45% nationally didn't cast a ballot.

    Betsy Devos (or however you spell it) never went to a public school, so she is unqualified to lead D.E. She is a creationist and is for PUBLIC funding of PRIVATE RELIGIOUS schools. I'll be damned if my taxes will be spent on private, religious education. HELP public schools, don't funnel money to other schools, unacceptable once again.

    This is why people are rioting, nobody is offering conservative solutions, they are dismantling our country.

    Exactly. Someone once remarked that government should be so small that it doesn't matter which crooks are in power.

    That's the problem today that government is so large that who is in control can cause such feelings of anxiety in those who are not in control. Shrink it back within its constitutional limits, devolve power back to local communities and we will be much better off in our individual lives.

    I think you're right on local communities for the most part, but as long as we have basics in place. Think back to FDR, and the results of the new deal. After that we had the most growth ever seen in the world, the late 30s-60s. This is when we were great, but in order to do that, corporations must take a hit in taxes. I'm sure you won't agree to that haha!

    Local communities should make decisions on social issues, but it doesn't work for economics.

    Democracy was on view in each of the 50 states. According to the Constitution, PRESIDENT TRUMP won 30 of them, their electoral votes and the office.

    Hysteria is parading around in a "vagina hat". "Loss of contact with reality" is when they think the hat really is a vagina.
